Museum Archive: Blue Fox Pixee , 1/2oz Nickel / Green fishing spoon #1940

Hammered nickel surfaces provide a complex, multi-directional flash that distinguishes this heavy-gauge spoon from smoother counterparts. Measuring 2 1/4 inches (5.5 cm) and weighing 1/2 oz (14 g), this Blue Fox Pixee is identified by product code 1940 and features a textured green plastic egg-sac insert. The lure remains in unused condition within its original packaging, which includes both the factory-rigged Rapala VMC Black Nickel treble hook and an optional Siwash single hook for varied rigging preferences. This specimen represents the quality standards of the 2002 production run from Minnetonka, MN, where the heavy-gauge brass body was engineered specifically for long-distance casting and deep retrieves in fast currents. The combination of the reflective metallic finish and the simulated salmon egg makes it a historically significant pattern for anglers targeting salmon, steelhead, and trout across the Great Lakes and Alaska. It is built to maintain its finish and structural integrity against the corrosive effects often found in diverse fishing environments.
